Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-2 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-2'.
-1.5 + -3x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.5' to each side of the equation.
-1.5 + -3x + 1.5 + x2 = 0 + 1.5

Reorder the terms:
-1.5 + 1.5 + -3x + x2 = 0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -3x + x2 = 0 + 1.5
-3x + x2 = 0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.5 = 1.5
-3x + x2 = 1.5

The x term is -3x.  Take half its coefficient (-1.5).
Square it (2.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '2.25' to each side of the equation.
-3x + 2.25 + x2 = 1.5 + 2.25
